INTRODUCTION: Primary percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) in acute coronary syndrome include coronary angioplasty (PTCA) and placing stent in occluded coronary artery, representing distinct progress in treating patients with acute coronary syndrome. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Permanent PCI service is available at Dubrava University Hospital since May 1, 2001. During the 2-year period, 142 patients with acute myocardial infarction with significant electrocardiographic ST-elevation were treated by this method. RESULTS: Occlusion was found and PCI treatment most often performed on the leading descending artery (46.5%) and right coronary artery (45.5%). The mortality during and immediately after PTC was reduced to 4.2%. CONCLUSION: Our results of successful recanalization of occluded coronary artery are similar to those reported from most European cardiology centers.
